Hi Guys,

Just recieved an email from MGCCN re our booking for this event next year. They have another interested party looking to book the track on Saturday 19th April as well. So we need to pay a deposit for the track as soon as we can. The deposit is $250. There is still $156 left over from last year's event that I can use to start covering this, which will leave only $94 to make up in the short term.

So we really need to start getting a list together of who is interested in starting for next year so some cash can flow in to confirm our place. I will try and get a price for the day so we know what we are up for in total. Individual entry fees will depend on how many confirmed starters we get, same as last year... ie: the more confirmed starters, the less each one of us pays. I know asking for money around Christmas is a bit rude, so sorry in advance...

Also to add, the track was looking to be lengthened by next year but it now doesn't look like it will be CAMS approved by then, so we will still be able to race on the original track only. As I get more info I will post it here...

I'm definitely in.

Happy to cover the $94 required for deposit now and just take it off what I owe for a full place.

Thank you arrow.

The payment details will be posted in this thread in the near future, so keep a regular eye out. I would like to know exactly what the bottom line is for next year before I start asking anyone for entry fees. As for the booking deposit I can sort that for now so we have the spot. There is another party that have booked the track for the 20th and 21st, but were also interested in the 19th, so I will pay the deposit asap.

MGCCN let us run 2013 as a 'come and try' event, but CAMS rules wont allow this for 2014 as most of the competitors will have either attended the 2013 event, or have a CAMS license already, so we no longer qualify as newbs. However the 'come and try' CAMS licenses should still be available on the day. I will confirm this when I find out exactly what the race layout will be and what the fees are. CAMS have not yet released the Permit Fees for 2014 so MGCCN cannot answer any event costs in detail. Greg from MGCCN believes detailed costs will be available toward the end of January after the silly season. This gives us good time to put some coin away ready to start paying fees when the time comes. Greg looked after us for 2013 to make the day as affordable as possible and vows to do so next year.

Remember, the more starters, the less each of us pay. So if you have a friend who doesn't grow a penis on his/her forehead once behind the wheel, then upon approval of OzGemini they should be welcome to come along to help bring the individual costs down. At least that was the theme this year gone...

i don't think there is specifically a minimum, but if theres 10 people and its $3000 for the track for example, its $300 per person to race .... whereas if we get 20 starters then its only $150 per head....

please note i have no idea of exact costs, thats just an example!
